How to unlock all secret Lego Batman 2 characters? That question will be answered in this guide that shows you how and who to unlock to get the full roster of Lego Batman 2: DC Super Heroes unlockable characters on Wii, PC, PS3, Xbox 360 & PS Vita.

Play Tip: You must first complete the Story Mode before you can change/switch characters in the Gotham City open world hub (although you can do it in Free Play Mode). Note that you’ll lose any suit that your Batman or Robin is wearing when you change/switch characters.

Here’s the funny Lego Batman 2 launch trailer showing off the main characters.

To unlock 50 of all 60 playable characters in the game you basically have to finish the Story Mode levels and explore Gotham City’s open world hub. This goes especially fast if you have access to Superman in between playing levels. — The 10 spots at the bottom of the character select screen (which normally are invisible until unlocked) are reserved for for downloadable content (DLC) characters, which at first will only be available via pre-order, but are sure to be released in two packs sometime after release (one for 5 Heroes and one for 5 Villains). — The 10 last spots on the character select screen’s sides are for the custom characters you can make at the Batcave computer.

Map Tip: To be able to scan for and see character icons on world map, you need to have activated the remote satellite / Bat Computer pad terminal nearby where you can look at the map & choose vehicles. This then unclouds the map and makes characters (like The Riddler) appear where you’re supposed to see them on their in-game location. It’s made obvious by the nearby character (if a Villain) appearing in a short cutscene where they taunt you to come fight them.

How To Find Villains: Villains are located at the red (or blue) beacons that light up the sky in the Gotham City open world hub. Go to the base of those beacons, activate the remote satellite Bat Computer and you should get a short video clip of the nearby villain. Defeat that villain in a brief battle and you then have the option to buy him/her. By way of a freebie, Brainiac is the villain associated with the remote computer located in the central park.

How To Find Heroes: Heroes are behind gold doors. These can be a little tricky to find, but they all ping on a map scan. Then, you have to have the requisite number of gold bricks to build the door. Once the door is built, a hero comes out and you can purchase him/her.

How To Unlock Lego Batman 2 Characters

Here’s how to find, unlock & buy hidden characters in this guide for Lego Batman 2.

Again, if your character doesn’t show up in the Gotham City open world hub and looking around the area in a circle doesn’t make him/her show up in front of you. Then most likely the Batcomputer Remote Terminal is not yet activated.

You will earn yourself several achievements or trophies for finding all characters in every level and open world area of Lego Batman 2: DC Super Heroes. They are:
* Team Building (50 Gamerscore / Gold Trophy) — Unlock all characters (Single Player Only).
* Girl Power (20 Gamerscore / Silver Trophy) — Unlock all female heroes and villains. (Single Player Only).
* Justice League (20 Gamerscore / Silver Trophy) — Unlock all Justice League characters (Single Player Only).
* Super-Villain (20 Gamerscore / Silver Trophy) — Unlock all the Bosses (Single Player Only).

Can someone help me, please? I keep looking for Hawkgirl and I can’t find her. I don’t know wich rooftop she is and I feel like I checked all of them on the south-east side of Ace Chemicals. Please help.

Try the scan function and look for the golden gates it shows on the map, from what I recall her or hawkman are close to the water works where Killer Croc is.

By the way you can do everything the Hazard Suit Robin does with Aquaman except wading through toxic waste or shooting out chemicals after dipping into a vat, Mister Freeze can completely replace Freeze Suit Robim, Penguin can do everything power suit batman does except firing grapnels/batarangs or pulling on orange handles,Cyborg can do everything Magnet Suit Robin can, and finally Manbat can do everything Bat Suit Batman can do. By the way Joker can power up those terminals that usually need Electric Suit Batman to operate but he can’t actually walk through electricity, though this is canceled by the fact he doesn’t need to go to an active terminal to get a charge…
